We don't but a better question is why would you not delete or report them like you are supposed to
No, Wiki Answers is not for commercial use. It is designed to allow the internet community to work together to provide answers to questions.
Probably because of the 'openness' of WikiAnswers. Many other forums don't allow questions or answers to be edited once they've been submitted, which means many answers (and questions) may just be completely wrong.
Sometimes, yes. We allow anyone to ask and answer questions, and we encourage people to improve answers when they are incorrect, and edit questions when they don't make sense.
WikiAnswers does not allow thoughtful, correct answers to be replaced with snarky, incorrect responses. It is completely against WikiAnswers' rules to do so.
WikiAnswers is important because it is a question and answer website and it answers questions for everyone everywhere. A lot of question and answer websites don't allow you to edit answers but WikiAnswers allows you to edit any answer as many times you want. Once the answer is perfect and percise, the answer may be locked by a supervisor.
Please keep in mind that WikiAnswers is a wiki Q&A, and as such, anyone can edit answers, questions, alternates, and whatnot (Guests can only answer questions/edit answers to questions.). There are several reasons why people would write inappropriate answers, most of them being vandalism. However, Supers and non-Supers alike are working hard to warn and rid of vandals, as well to clean up the site.
In my opinion, there are no such things as 'Bad Questions'. And as such, they shouldn't be answered with 'Bad Answers'. I agree. I tell my students that if there were a bad question, it would be the one that wasn't asked.
Yes, there are hundreds of categories for questions about the life of living people on WikiAnswers.
Because we appreciate all the help we can get to answer as MANY questions as possible, however, there are limitations when being a guest of WikiAnswers such as not being able to edit their answers or others answers to improve them, not being able to make edits of the question etc.
Jokers Answering Serious and Legitimate QuestionsI guess that is what you get with free speech and first amendment rights. Think of wikianswers as a little piece of the world, there are nice and not so nice people here. Keep trying and you will mostly find good. In addition, WikiAnswers has over 500 dedicated supervisors who remove answers that do not answer the questions or are not appropriate answers, including those that are joking, rude, or not serious answers. People who give those types of answers are considered vandals and are often blocked from using WikiAnswers.
There is a big-number of people that aren't mean on this website. If you feel that you're being abused by other contributors; it's best to contact a supervisor and allow them to deal with the abuse!I will also note that there are many mean answers being posted under the name "contributer" by people who have not signed up with their own personal pseudonym. For some people, this site is just a golden opportunity to post sarcastic and insulting answers to people's questions. Whenever I see such answers, I replace them with my own, sincere answers.
